College Profile South West Gauteng College is a public Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), formerly, FET College, operating under the auspices of the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) in terms of the Further Education and Training Colleges Act, Act No.16 of 2006, as amended. The College is accredited by Umalusi and several Sector Education and Training Authorities (Seta’s) to offer education and training, mostly in the FET band (NQF Level 2 to 4). Some programmes are offered in the Higher Education band i.e. the N4 to N6 levels. With its head office located at Molapo Campus, Soweto and campuses spread through Soweto (3) to Roodepoort (2) and Randburg (1), the College is a real citadel of education and training for communities in its wide catchment area and beyond. With the distance learning and e-learning mode, driven through the Technisa Campus in Randburg, it is no exaggeration to say “we now surface everywhere!” Starting from 2007, the FET (TVET) colleges have been offering the new three year TVET curriculum, which culminates in the awarding of the National Certificate (Vocational) [NC (V)] to students. This qualification is opening two doors to the successful students. Since their education will have had a deliberate vocational slant, the students completing the NC (V) Level 4 qualification are able to enter the job market. The first cohort of NC (V) graduates came out at the end of 2009 and was received well by the economy. The Level 4 NC (V) graduates are also able to proceed to the Higher Education and pursue some post-NQF Level 4 education at universities or universities of Technology, depending on their results in Level 4. If they choose this route, they do so on a very strong technical foundation, which they have obtained from their three years at the College. The entry requirements for Higher Education for students who have completed NC (V) Level 4 qualification can be obtained from the College’s Student Support or Marketing Offices and in the College Prospectus. The important thing is that if one wants to follow a vocational direction, either in Engineering Studies, Business Studies, or Utility Studies, one does not need to stay at school until one has passed Grade 12, since colleges are offering a three-year vocational qualification. To enrol for this qualification, one only needs to have passed the minimum of Grade 10, but the qualification is more suitable for learners with a higher school grade, e.g. Grade 11 or even Grade 12. The qualification will give students vocational training culminating in an NQF Level 4 qualification, which will open doors to the world of work for them. Students are not able to enter this National Certificate (Vocational) at Level 3 or Level 4, even if they have passed Grade 11 or 12 at school. They have to start this qualification at Level 2, and continue with it for three years, until they complete the NQF Level 4 NC (V) qualification, which is where they will be awarded the NC (V) certificate.

2

The Department of Higher Education and Training has also made millions of rands available for bursaries. Any NC (V) student may apply for a bursary, subject to a means test. The means test determines if the student is needy and therefore qualifies for assistance in the form of a bursary. The bursary does not only consider economic need, it also factors in the student’s scholastic academic capability. So, good performance (results), after enrolment, guarantees continuation of the bursary until completion. The DHET bursaries also cover N-courses for needy and academically capable students. It is a condition of the bursary that the recipients commit to their studies and attend their lectures and classes regularly. The drastic skills shortage in the economy has resulted in the Department allowing colleges to continue enrolling students in the N-courses (Report 191 NATED Courses) in Engineering, from N1-N6 and N4 to N6 in Business Studies and Utility Studies. This arrangement is not intended to dissuade students from NC (V) to N-courses, even though the N-courses appear shorter than the NC (V) on the surface. Prospective students must note that whereas the NC (V) is a complete qualification incorporating some practical learning in a workplace, after completing N6 at the College, for a student to be awarded an N6 Diploma, he/she must find a workplace to do experiential learning for a period of 18 months. Work hard and make our Top Ten Student List college-wide and possibly join a fully sponsored study excursion to our partner college in Holland!

Word From The Council Chairperson

It is now widely accepted that 'education proper' occurs within a person, and is not something that is imposed onto a person from outside. Yes, the trigger to this all-important internally occurring process called education may be an external stimulus, but the actual process of education occurs within a person and even glows more in the personality and character of the 'educated' person. South West Gauteng TVET College, as an institution of learning and the wide variety programmes it offers, as captured in the following pages can only lay claim to being a capable partner in the igniting of the process or flame of learning, within its students. It is this partnership between the student and the College which makes it possible for each student to become the best that they can be. As such the college does not inject education into people! Over the years, young and not-so-young people have joined this partnership with the College as students and have worked with the college and its personnel to turn their dreams into reality. The variety of programmes on offer ensures that everyone is able to choose a path or journey which is appropriate and suited to their own natural 'wiring, for, each human life is a success story waiting to be told and written in its own peculiar way. Many who joined this college in previous years have come out as Administrators, Electrical and Mechanical Artisans, Human Resources Practitioners, IT Technicians, Police Officers, Accounting Assistants, Educare Practitioners - the list is endless. The possibilities and programmes on offer have become even more varied, as is evident in the pages that follow. Every prospective student going through this prospectus should find a programme or study direction which either synchronizes with their inner self, or points to a career of their choice. Whatever your own choice, follow it and dare to dream! Our guarantee to you is that you will not fault the level of stimulation and support which will be made available to you as a student of this college, regardless of the campus you will be enrolled at. May the future foreword to this publication be about how you were assisted to make your own dream come true! Dare to dream and trust SWGC to go the long haul with you! Enjoy Ms PN Tsokolibane Chairperson of the Council

Word From The Principal

Dear Prospective Student Buildings and physical facilities of a college do not make a college, important as these are in education and training. It is people human beings - who make an institution - educators, administrators, support staff, managers and, importantly, students. South West Gauteng Technical and Vocational Education and Training College uses mostly modern and state of the art facilities for the delivery of its programmes at its seven delivery sites, spread over Soweto, Randburg and Roodepoort in Johannesburg and the 'Land is Wealth' Farm in Sterkfontein. These facilities are being continually improved every year for the benefit of, in particular, the students of the college. In 2014, for example, we pioneeringly introduced the use of tablets by our NC(V) Level 4 students, as opposed to conventional textbooks and extended the pilot in 2015 to Level 3 students - only to be let down by publishers who did not have e-books for Report 191 N5 programmes,which were meant to be carried through the use of tablets, too, instead of textbooks! In 2016 all college full-time programmes where e-books are available will be delivered through tablets, subject to a refundable deposit of R500.00. Students who can afford will be able to buy the tablets out-right and own them. It is however the people who will be put in front of you, as a student, in your lecture rooms and in the administration offices that we pride ourselves more with, our educators and or programme facilitators and other support personnel. They love their work and will treat you with utmost respect as students. They are themselves learners who are trying to keep abreast with the demands of the new and ever-changing curriculum that they will be helping you with and so they will stretch you, rather than stifle you in your learning. Prepare to work hard and enjoy doing so! You will have noted in the first paragraph that students are the most important element of the college equation - without students there is no college and we cannot lay claim to being practising education and training practitioners. After all, the college exists for the sole purpose of providing education and training to students.We therefore want you to see this college that is depicted in this prospectus, South West Gauteng TVET College, as one where you as a student are placed at the centre of everything we do. We call ourselves successful when our students succeed with their studies and also with their post-College endeavours. The college's programme offerings are varied and appeal to the tastes and ambitions of many people. You will also find a programme which will appeal to you, and once you have found your own programme, follow the steps given for, first applying for enrolment and, when invited to enrol, do so without delay, attend the orientation programme, and ask whatever questions you may have, make the college your own and work with us to make your dream come true, like the many who have done so before you. Continues...>

Word From The Principal - Continued

Should money be a problem, do not worry, since most of the programmes in this prospectus are covered by the Department's bursary for needy and academically capable students. The bursaries are limited, though and work on the principle of first-come- first-serve, even for needy students. Ask at any campus about the means test, which determines if you qualify for a bursary. Some of the programmes are also available on e-learning / distance delivery mode, whilst many of the college campuses offer programmes both on a full-time and part-time mode all intended for your convenience. Remember, the college is much bigger than this prospectus and so, talk to us if you do not find what you are looking for in the prospectus! Note that for the past five years the college has been sending its Top Ten students college-wide, in terms of academic performance, overseas to our partner college, Noorderpoort in the Netherlands, just for being in the College's Top Ten. That is something you can work towards after registering with the College. This is just one of the many life-changing possibilities and opportunities of being a student at SWGC! You will soon understand why, many people stop and listen when our students chant in unison, saying: 'SWGC, Period! Enough Said! They do not stop there, by the way, they also say… indeed, it is 'cool2b@SWGC!' Who can blame them? I look forward to welcoming you as a student of South West Gauteng College and to hear you join the above chants!

Word From The SRC President

Dear prospective students of the tried and tested SWGC It is with honour and an avalanche of excitement that I welcome you on behalf of the Students Representative Council (SRC) of South West Gauteng TVET College. It has long been sung that education is the key to success, we as the Students Representative Council of South West Gauteng TVET College would like to share our sentiment with you, yes you! Now that we have established the base of education being a sure key to success and prosperity, let us further emphasize that it is through education that one can manage to change the past's effect and hold on the future. As the youth of South Africa we are privileged to have institutions such as South West Gauteng TVET College opening its doors to us and make it possible for us to further our studies, even though our backgrounds may be wanting to militate against our intent! But the door to education is opened, the negatives of the past become tamed and the glimpse of a bright future emerges. In reality, the key to success that education is, is not the end all and be all! What is needed is for the individual, like you, as the one who has chosen to enter the 'opened gate' of education to take the necessary, sometimes rigorous steps to make it happen for yourself! Granted, as young people, we are sometimes ambushed by difficult situations in our upbringing, we can all attest to that. Being at college and, at this college, in particular, offers one an opportunity to cancel all that and create a 'new' future! With that being said we as the South West Gauteng TVET College Students Representative Council say, let our college be your haven, let us assist you in making sure that you are the right size key for the door you want to open. Remember the future is not the next coming week but the second that follows after you have taken the decision to join this moving ship into a bright future. “Sometimes you’ll be the only one who believes in your dream. Do not stop. The world needs you to model what’s possible for the rest of us.” –Robin Sharma So then brothers and sisters it is a plea from us that you remember that you need to push yourselves because no one else is going to do it for you. And if you are reading this, we hope a great decision will be made today. As the famous words of our father, Mr Nkosi, the Principal, goes, 'SWGC, Period Enough Said!'

In order to qualify for a diploma in Business Studies, one must pass at least one computer component, e.g. Introductory Computer Practice, Computerised Financial Systems, Computer Practice and Information Processing on any level (N4, N5 or N6). A fifth and sixth subject may be taken per level in addition to the prescribed four subjects. These additional subjects will be endorsed on the certificate(s). Where more than one level of a subject is given as an elective option, the principle remains in force that the previous level must be passed before the next level can be attempted, except in the case of Mercantile Law N5. It is not compulsory to take all four prescribed subject at the same time. A subject may be written during the June or November examination. When Computerised Financial Systems N4, N5 or N6 are chosen, Financial Accounting N4, N5 or N6 must be taken simultaneously or should have been passed beforehand. When Computerized Financial Systems N6 is chosen, Cost and Management Accounting N6 must be taken simultaneously, or should have been passed beforehand. Almost all N4 - N6 subjects are offered in English only, but students may do assignments and examinations in Afrikaans. You need to have access to a computer with a CD-drive to conduct Computerized Financial Systems.

General Information - Continued REQUIREMENTS FOR THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL WORK Theoretical assignments: (N4 - N6) • Compulsory theoretical assignments must be submitted to Technisa Campus lecturers for evaluation and student support. Assignments must reach the TECHNISA before 31 March for the June exam and before 30 September for the November exam. • In order to obtain examination entry an aggregate of 40% is required for compulsory assignments. REMEMBER: • By completing assignments, you gain a better understanding of the work and automatically improve your chances of completing your studies successfully. • Studying your marked assignments is the only way in which you, as a distance education student, can monitor your progress. • Please make copies of your assignments before you send them to TECHNISA, in case they get lost in the post. Practical assignments (N4 - N6) • Compulsory practical assignments are to be submitted in respect of some N4 - N6 subjects. These assignments MUST reach Technisa Campus in good time for evaluation PRIOR to the examinations. • The theoretical and practical assignments are of utmost importance to N4 - N6 students seeing that the marks obtained, form part of the final examination mark. Practicum • Students for the subjects Computer Practice, Information Processing, Computerised Financial Systems, as well as Applied Accountancy NSC, need to have access to a computer. PASS REQUIREMENTS A pass mark of 40 % must be obtained in each subject. • The marks you receive for your assignments, will determine your semester or year mark, which will contribute to your final mark according to the specifications of the Department of Education. • Also refer to the study letter issued with your study material regarding pass requirements as well as the compilation of a term mark. EXAMINATIONS N4-N6 examinations are written on a semester basis during June or November. Please report at the examination room 15 minutes before the commencement of the exam and 30 minutes before the commencement of exams for all computer related examinations! Examination registration and results Previous examination papers are obtained at Technisa Campus at a specific fee. Please contact Technisa Campus study/resource Centre.
